Ingredients
Scale
- 1 pound ground beef
- 1/2 cup breadcrumbs
- 1/4 cup finely chopped onion
- 1/4 cup milk
- 1 large egg
- 1 tablespoon Worcestershire sauce
- 1 teaspoon garlic powder
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 1/2 teaspoon black pepper
- 2 tablespoons olive oil (for frying)
- 1 cup sliced mushrooms
- 1/4 cup finely chopped onion
- 2 tablespoons all-purpose flour
- 2 cups beef broth
- 1 tablespoon Worcestershire sauce
- 1 teaspoon soy sauce
- Salt and pepper to taste
- 4 medium potatoes (for mashed potatoes)
- 1/2 cup milk (for mashed potatoes)
- 4 tablespoons butter (for mashed potatoes)
- Salt and pepper to taste (for mashed potatoes)
- 1 cup frozen peas (or your choice of vegetable)
Instructions
- In a large mixing bowl, combine the ground beef, breadcrumbs, chopped onion, milk, egg, Worcestershire sauce, garlic powder, salt, and black pepper. Mix until well combined, being careful not to overmix.
- Divide the mixture into four equal portions and shape each into an oval steak, about 1/2 inch thick.
- Heat olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Cook the shaped steaks for 4-5 minutes on each side until browned and cooked through. Remove from skillet and set aside, leaving drippings in the skillet.
- In the same skillet, add sliced mushrooms and chopped onion. Sauté over medium heat for about 5 minutes until tender.
- Sprinkle flour over the mixture and stir well. Cook for an additional minute.
- Gradually pour in beef broth while stirring to prevent lumps. Add Worcestershire sauce and soy sauce, then bring to a simmer.
- Let the gravy simmer for 5-7 minutes until thickened. Adjust consistency with more broth if needed. Season with salt and pepper.
- Return the cooked Salisbury steaks to the skillet, spooning gravy over them. Simmer together for a couple of minutes.
- Peel and chop potatoes into even-sized chunks. Place in a large pot and cover with cold water. Add a pinch of salt and bring to a boil.
- Reduce heat to medium and cook for 15-20 minutes until fork-tender. Drain and return to pot.
- Add milk and butter, then mash until smooth and creamy. Season with salt and pepper to taste. Add more milk or butter for extra creaminess if desired.
Notes
- For added flavor, consider incorporating herbs like thyme or parsley into the gravy.
- You can substitute ground turkey or chicken for a lighter version of the Salisbury steak.
- Feel free to use fresh vegetables instead of frozen peas for a seasonal touch.
